Subject: [PATCH 03/18] powerpc: Support parsing a little endian kernel from zImage wrapper
From: Ian Munsie <imunsie@....ibm.com>
This patch adds support to the PowerPC zImage wrapper (which always runs
in big endian mode) to detect if the zImage is little endian and parse
it's ELF header to enable it's successful extraction.
It also provides some infrastructure for executing a little endian
kernel - PowerPC platforms that support little endian should fill
platform_ops.le_kentry with a function pointer to the routine
responsible for switching the CPU to little endian and executing the
kernel. This routing takes the same arguments in the same positions as
kentry to allow them to easily be passed onto the kernel, with the
kentry pointer itself tacked on as argument 4.
